The State Preschool is an AM program and is only in operation from 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM Monday to Friday. The District Preschool is open from 7 AM to 6 PM Monday to Friday.

LPA toured the Facility both inside and outside during today's inspection.

The Facility has three waivers on file for electronic sign in and sign out, shared bathroom usage, and shared playground use. The Facility is in compliance with the terms and conditions of all waivers.

The program is operated by the Santa Clara Unified School District and all criminal background checks for staff are handled by the Department of Education and thus do not come under the jurisdiction of Community Care Licensing Division.

The teacher files reviewed contain the required transcripts/verification of experience. Gina and the teachers have current CPR and First Aid certifications on file. Gina understands that there shall be at least one person, with valid CPR and First Aid certifications, on site at all times or present during off-site activities (field trips).

LPA observed that the teacher/child ratio was in compliance during today's inspection. Gina understands the conditions, limitations, and capacity specifications of the Facility license. Gina understands that children shall be visually supervised at all times. LPA observed the director & two teachers in Room 28 with 24 preschool children and one teacher with 8 preschool children in Room 26 during today's inspection The State preschool is Title V funded and thus must comply with Title V ratio requirements at all times.

Drinking water is readily available for the children in each room and in the outdoor playground area via drinking fountains and water jug/disposable cups. LPA observed solid waste containers with tight-fitting lids in each classroom. Staff and children's bathrooms are clean, sanitary, and operable. There is a separate staff bathroom not utilized by the children which an isolated child can use if needed. Gina states that there are no weapons or firearms on the premises.

The food preparation and storage areas are clean, free of litter & rubbish, and free of rodents and other vermin. All food and beverages that require refrigeration are stored in covered containers at 45 degrees F or less. Cleaning supplies are inaccessible to the children and stored in high cabinets inaccessible to children. Gina states that the Facility does not administer any medications.

LPA observed all furniture and equipment is in good condition and safe for the children. The playground areas utilized by children is surrounded by appropriate fencing and the outdoor surfaces are safe for the children. LPA observed that the outdoor equipment is age appropriate and in good condition. The playground area, located behind Room 28, can accommodate up to 64 preschool children; however, the only shaded areas are located on the left side of the storage shed and near the chain link fenced area facing the parking lot. Thus, there is insufficient shade in the playground area, located behind Room 28. LPA did not observe any bodies of water.
